Alexis Ohanian, the co-founder of Reddit and Serena Williams’ husband, certainly does not shy away from expressing his love for his wife, the 23-time Grand Slam champ. In March last year, he revealed that he had the world’s largest vintage rookie card collection of Serena Williams. He’s also been investing in Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs) for his wife.

After showing off the SerenaPunk gifted to Serena by him at last year’s Met Gala, Ohanian has now added a new NFT to her wife’s collection. This time, it’s a pink ape.
